No, I wouldn't buy it. I find it very difficult to get into Taylor guitars built after the year 2000. They just kept changing things (not for the better, in my opinion) until they got to where they are today. I thought the Grand Pacific model could be something I could get into, but it turns out no. Let's not forget the pricing. Everything they put out is overpriced, in my opinion. I don't care where a guitar is made, and I certainly don't care what the name on the headstock is. If it's a good guitar, then it's good. And there is a hell of a lot of good stuff out there these days!
Would you buy one of these over a 324? Let me know!
Thanks for your input. I just got a 2 year old 324e for a slightly cheaper price than the AD24ce which was too hard for me to pass up!
Congrats!
